So I got a little more info and I think I'm gonna do it. They do get copyright of the photos and they don't want me to display them anywere else, but I really don't need to use them myself, so I don't think it would bother me like doing personal photo shoots or weddings, however I could take a few extra while I was there, ones that I didn't give them and use them as my portfolio ones I suppose. Anyways what I found out is it is actually the city I live in who is putting this together. This company that contacted me has been hired by my city to do a video montage type thing for the city's website, not TV afterall. It will have pictures and videos dipicting our town and some local businesses. Come to find out my friends business will also be a part of it (they are a home builder) so if I take their contract, I could be hired to do this for 15-20 different businesses. Still at $135 each but I guess if I do a few it could add up. By looking at their website the photos should be fairly easy, picture of a home, the inside of it, some business fronts, customers in action etc. nothing that looks like it would require a bunch of special lighting/ time consuming set ups. Anyways, the first shoot is on the 12th, so if I do it I'll let you guys know how it goes. Worst case I'll waste some time, but I'll chalk it up to experience if that is the case.
